Hey John –
When I first started at Women’s March nearly five years ago, I knew my job would not be easy – but I definitely did not know it’d be spending my Saturday staring at a budget worrying about the line items for...
...Porta Potties.
Let me explain: We are expecting thousands of fierce feminists to show up to march in Washington, D.C. on October 8th (exactly 5 weeks from today!) – and thousands more to march in solidarity at sister events across the country.
And while we’re protesting for our fundamental rights, we cannot forget about our fundamental needs. So as the committed attendee list grows...the bigger my budget needs to be for Porta Potties and other march infrastructure (AKA the Porta Potty Piggy Bank).
I know it’s not the most glamorous donation ask I’ll ever make, but it’s really, REALLY important to the success of our event (and the comfort of our marchers).
Today, just FIVE weeks away from our nationwide Weekend of Action, will you contribute $5 (or whatever is right for you) to our Porta Potty Bigg Bank?
Thank you for getting sh!t done – now enjoy your Saturday!
